YYZ Assessments Dec 11-13, 2017

[honggil]

I don’t have any updates on my profile despite receiving the acknowledgment via snail mail. Are we supposed to?

[xpoy]

looks like everyone is in the same boat
I got my acknowledgement last week with no update on my profile.
Hopefully who ever gets the first call will update here.

[Uncle drew]

Well, seems like most of us have missed the boat for the April training, which we were warned about at the assessment so it shouldn't come as a big surprise. my guess is it won't be until May that we get invited for interviews

[xpoy]

anyone from the dec assessment get a call yet?
I'm getting really concerned as there is a lot of talk about this new application process.

[Uncle drew]

I haven't received any updates since sending my documents in. What have you heard about the new assessment process?

[xpoy]

hey Uncle drew
if you go to the YYZ assessments topic you'll be able to read all about it.

[Uncle drew]

So they introduced a new assessment - do you have any idea what that means for the likes of us who completed the old assessment? That is rather unfortunate.

[Uncle drew]

according to the recruitment centre the pilot project will run in tandem with the previous assessment groups, so hopefully that means some of us will get selected for an interview. they will contact us by phone apparently and we will not be updated on the website if we are selected for an in-person interview.

Any of my friends from the December assessment get any calls for in-person interviews, or any updates at all?
Please advise

No, I haven't got anything yet.

[vinblastine]

Nope, if I hear something I'll definitely speak up.

[Uncle drew]

Nada for me.

Hi Everyone,

I just got an email for an invite to do testing for the Winter 2018 course, kind of short notice cause its next week.
Anyone else got it?

[vinblastine]

Got the testing notice for next week. It seems like we got pushed into the new kind of testing.

[SZL]

Got the email today too. I'm going October 1. Good luck everyone.

[xpoy]

Glad to see others got it
Im going next Tuesday

Good morning friends

I’m guessing they’re creating a special training session for us Dec 2017 Assessment writers for Dec 2018. We just have to write the new exam to qualify. I’m writing next week. It was short notice, but it sure is nice to hear from them. GLTA and I hope to see you on course.

I signed up for Oct 5 on the doodle. Can anyone provide insight on the test format? Will there be any interviews or is it strictly testing?

[djun]

Did you go through your 1st phone and/or 2nd in-person interview? Or does it appear to be those who had just recently done the written assessment?

[.TODA.]

I believe this is for those who’ve done the old style assessment, and had their phone interview. Anyone who’s not in that category let us know. Also, of those who registered on the doodle, did anyone recieve confirmation of completion?

Hey guys. I never did any written assessment prior to this. Only the initial online assessment. I understand there have been some changes that took place in the intake process recently so I'm not 100% of those differences.

I signed up on the doodle app. Before I went to bed last night, it showed that I was signed up for October 1st along with 40+ others. Today I went to sign in because I was curious to see how many others have signed up for the same time since. I am actually unable to find my information at this time. Does this mean we have chosen a day that we will attend or are we only voting to see which day we prefer? They keep referring to it as a poll so I am not certain of the verbage lol.

I don't want to accidentally not be registered as the email was explicit that the slots will be on a first come, first serve basis. Thanks to anyone with any additional insight.

[xpoy]

I signed up on Doodle as well and got no confirmation so I emailed Olivia the person that sent me the invite to confirm.
She confirmed my spot for next week so I suggest if you're unsure then email the person back. They seemed pretty quick on the response (replied next day).

Thanks @xpoy for the suggestion. I will be sending out an email right away.
